Bio from Transformers Revenge of The Fallen Voyager Optimus Prime toy

"From the moment Optimus Prime took earth as a new home for him and his people, he was rededicated to it's protection. Since that day he has dedicated all of his considerable will and power on rooting out the last few remaining Decepticons and destroying them. To that end, he has upgraded and refined his sensor suite, and trained with Ironhide in tracking the evil robots."

Loving the bio from the toy, hope this is his story in the movie and explains why he isnt in Egypt in the finale.

Prime is practically the face of Transformers and their universe, I really hope he gets a proper representation in ROTF and is shown as the bad-ass leader he can so often be. The scene his face plate being smashed in the trailer doesnt give me much hope of course.

Cybertronian Optimus Primal - A veteran of the last Great War that resulted in the defeat of the Predacon forces, Optimus Primal embodies many of the Maximal philosophical ideals. He is a heroic figure whose ability for self sacrifice knows no bounds. While he understands that war and conflict are sad realities of his existence, he has made it a point to study the historical and scientific records of past generations. He believes it is the balance that his idol, the original Optimus Primal, maintained throughout his long service. While Optimus Primal has a vast understanding of standard battle protocols, he sometimes utilizes unconventional, yet creative tactics to succeed in his missions. In vehicle mode, his boosters allow the ability to move at speeds of up to 350 mph for short bursts. While in robot mode, the boosters can become forward deployed missile launchers capable of locking onto two targets independently. The boosters can also be used for flight in robot mode. While always battle ready, he believes his current mission of exploration aboard the Axalon is symbolic of the Maximal goals of peace and harmony in the galaxy.

Beast Wars Optimus Primal - Move over King Kong, Optimus Primal is ready to rock! The heroic leader has bio-genetically re-engineered his body structure into a gargantuan robotic gorilla! Cybernetically fused musculature has enhanced strength to super-powered levels. Shoulder-mounted, mega-blast missile cannons launch devastating attacks upon foolish Predacon invaders. When they force him to fight, they force him to win!

Transmetal Optimus Primal - Changed into a mighty, metal gorilla by the planetary destruction device, Optimus Primal has a built-in, rocket-powered hoverboard that lets him hang ten on the air-waves of the Beast Wars world! Stronger and faster than ever, he converts to become the huge, organically enhanced Maximal General loaded with weaponry. Predacons who value their health best avoid any monkey business with metal Optimus Primal!

Optimal Optimus - Optimal Optimus a wise and compassionate Maximal commander developed his trademark valor and heroism during his role in the Beast Wars. Exposure to a nebulous entity reconfigured him into the ultimate four - mode Transmetal, Optimal Optimus reactive smart missile cannons are functional and all modes of operation. In hypersonic attack mode he has upgraded Cybertronian "air guardian" jet technology equipped with scramjet modules specialized for unmatched velocity. In armored ground-assault mode, he transgresses all terrain and overcomes all opposition. Battle-reactive blast shields supply him with an impenetrable defense, making Optimal Optimus the most potent threat ever to face-off against Megatron and his Predacons.

Beast Machines - Intelligence, experience, passion and skill are all crucial parts of what makes Optimus Primal the proven leader of the Maximal cause. His metaphysical views play a large role in the methods to defeat Megatron and the Vehicons. A master at the art of change and ability to actualize multiple mode potential in others. Easily the strongest of the Maximals. Can punch through most Vehicon alloys with his boastful fist. Capable of short flights while in Robot Mode, and Beast Mode provides him with formidable speed and strength on the ground. Will stop at nothing to save the techno-organic world of Cybertron and defeat Megatron.

Prime is a legend, everything seems better providing Prime is involved. The 86' movie for example....the best part of that to me was Prime coming to Earth and taking out all the Decepticons almost single-handedly. Season 3 of Transformers was also better when Prime made his brief appearances....Dark Awakening is a classic ep.

With any luck Prime will "Bonecrusher" any Decepticon in his way in this film...until of course Megs returns...although with any luck the fight will be far less one sided.

By FAR the best part of that movie. Most of the best parts of the live action movie involved Prime also, just a great character.

Is that the new leader or voyager? Either way, it looks a hundred times better than the line for the first movie...looks like I'll be spending a couple hundred bucks on TF's again this summer. And there I was hoping I'd only have to get the new characters...silly me.

So far this quest is a breeze. I've already killed a dead monster, what's next? We're going to open an unlocked door? Rescue a princess from herself?

THAT is leader class prime and from the video I have seen of him from truck to robot mode and those dual retractable swords he is a MUST buy.
